What impressed me is how it shifts between tones without losing its grip… part nasty little thriller, part comedy of humiliation, part karmic hammer hanging over everyone’s head. It shouldn’t work, but it does because every beat feels like some awful coming-of-age memory someone never admitted to.
kasarin on Letterboxd Single location, home invasion Thai horror/thriller. Cool concept with some really good performances including from Jesus himself. Not many interesting New Years Eve horror films out there, but this is one of them.
PulpFixation on Letterboxd A bunch of freewheeling Thai New Yorkers find themselves at the sadistic mercy of a deranged drug dealer; strong performances all around and unpredictable claustrophobic suspense abounds as David Asavanond takes his manic, fanatical, bedlam-loving “Jesus” to scary bonkers heights.
